I took CFA while I was in SLS.

I prepared for it really hard and expected that I would pass it...

However, I didn't pass it because of "0 push up"

In CFA, when the whistle blown up, I was on the rest position.

and started it a little late, with both my knees on the ground.

Soon, I was called out "0 push up"...

I did everything else fine, with bb throw, sit ups max.

I just received the mail this morning, that i didn't pass CFA.

Ifeel so screwed rite now..

I've heard that ur chance's really low if u don't pass CFA while in SLS.

is that true?? I don't know what to say at this moment..

Oh, don't worry. The CFA at SLS was a free try. I was "no risk" but many others werent, and they are fine, it was really just an oppurtunity to take it and see how well you did. Train, and take it again in the fall and pass and youll be fine. It wont look bad, especially considering that a 0 means you messed up, not that you were out of shape (it would be hard not to do one push up!).

This was practice. Don't worry about a thing; your chances are not low. Prep so that you can take and pass the CFA early in the application process.

By the way, my daughter didn't pass the former version of the CFA when she attended SLS (prior name of the summer program) and she graduated from West Point in May.

Good luck!
